are a three piece rock and indie cover band (as seen on TV!) based in London and can be hired for all types of events. Our covers band consists of highly experienced professionals who have performed at hundreds of bars, weddings, university balls, garden parties, corporate events, festivals, private functions and parties in the UK and Europe over the past few years, and performed to thousands at the Boogie In The Park and Music On The Moor festivals. Members of the band have entertained celebrities such as Denise Lewis, Ian Botham, Tim Rice, Phil Tuffnell, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, Anna Friel and David Thewlis and worked with Eddie Masters (Boney M) and Glenn Le Fleur (Gerry Rafferty).

We play a high energy mix of rock, pop and indie covers, mainly from the 90's onwards. Think Kings of Leon, the Killers, Green Day, Blur, Oasis, Stereophonics, Kasabian, Kaiser Chiefs etc and you'll get the picture. We couldn't resist putting a few classics in the set too though so we also cover songs by The Beatles, Stevie Wonder, The Kinks, The Rolling Stones... If required we can also offer a chill out acoustic set along the lines of Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz, Damien Rice, Cat Stevens, Jeff Buckley... See our set list for full details.

Our cover band performs completely live (no backing tracks!) with three male lead vocalists, guitar, bass and drums, and provides everything you need to kick your party off – we have our own sound and lighting system and offer a choice between 2x45, 2x60, 3x30 or 3x40 minute sets. We can provide recorded interval music in between sets, or you may plug your ipod/laptop etc into our equipment. This is a very popular option as you get to choose the songs! Where possible, we are more than happy to learn and perform your favourite song for your party, or as the first dance at your wedding! We have experience of playing huge outdoor stages, living rooms and everything in between so can adjust our volume level to suit any venue and event.

Weddings: If you are looking for wedding bands for hire we will be only too pleased to help! Between us, we have been hired to play at over 500 weddings so we know what works and what doesn’t! We are a wedding band based in London, so can offer you preferential rates if your wedding reception is within London’s M25. For weddings further afield you will find our wedding band quote very competitive so please enquire – we are a three piece wedding band so can charge less than larger bands for your wedding. Unlike other wedding bands for hire we are a cool wedding band, not a cheesy disco act! We will NEVER play any ABBA! In October 2011 our band was on BBC3's 'Don't Tell The Bride' show. Needless to say the bride was delighted with the surprise band and enjoyed every minute of the first dance (played by us of course)! In case you are wondering, it was ‘You & Me Song’ by The Wannadies!

Bars, pubs & clubs: our band has a wealth of experience playing at these types of venues and we are happy to arrange things to suit you and your customers. We will get the place jumping up and down and singing along (thirsty work!).
